D&D General Melf's Guide to Greyhawk Coming From Luke Gygax & WotC

[Plaguescarred]

I wonder what Luke Gygax, Jay Scott & Co. thougth of GREYHAWK version published in the Dungeon Master Guide 2024. Its largely the same as the originally gazeteer aside few minor change like the name of some nation or power group.

Vince Vaughn got the original painting for only $5k? Seems kind of low to me (and easily afforded by an actor, even one as relatively humble as Vaughn).

I'm very glad about this.

Luke is well more in touch with what fans expect from a Greyhawk book so this is massively good news. Ayoub is turning out to be a great steward it seems and I wish he was in charge when they made the Forgotten Realms books. He probably would have brought on Ed Greenwood and we could have avoided the Purple Dragons riding "purple Dragons" and Calimshan arbitrarily becoming robot land.

Go to your room. No supper for you.

Seriously- this is probably the absolute worst way to do anything Greyhawk related. That module isn't just a useless piece of crap, it's actively insulting to Greyhawk, the Gygaxes, and WoG players.

The chances of Luke Gygax doing this are very low because it was a direct insult to Gary Gygax. I COULD see a REAL version of Castle Greyhawk being released though.
